I downloaded, burned, and booted http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/precise/release/ubuntu-12.04-desktop-powerpc.iso since I didn't have a blank DVD to use for the bigger and newer http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/trusty/release/lubuntu-14.04.5-desktop-powerpc.iso file. Maybe that's a good thing because v12.04 was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO slow as to be expected. :( Anyways, it took me a while to navigate since I don't use Ubuntu. I managed to find Terminal with its Unity's hotkeys (ctrl+alt+T). I ran "sudo gparted" command. I resized the free drive space in half. Now, we wait... I noticed there was an install option on its desktop. I could try that too if this fails. :) -- Quote of the Week: "The constant creeping of ants will wear away the stone." --unknown Note: A fixed width font (Courier, Monospace, etc.) is required to see this signature correctly. /\___/\ Phil./Ant(Dude) @ http://antfarm.ma.cx (Personal Web Site) / /\ /\ \ Ant's Quality Foraged Links: http://aqfl.net | |o o| | E-mail: phi...@earthlink.net/a...@zimage.com \ _ / If crediting, then please kindly use Ant nickname ( ) and AQFL URL/link.
